Property Overview Château des Sénéchaux
Inspired by the soul of the property captured within the centuries-old stone walls, and the whispers of the spirits of those whose footsteps were once heard throughout the building, the Château des Sénéchaux offers a sublime backdrop for beautifully curated furniture and unique decorative objects from all over the world. A calm and peaceful feeling envelops you as you become immersed in the charm and serenity of the elegantly restored property, with stunning views from every window, and an overwhelming respite from the everyday routine.
The Château des Sénéchaux is set in the heart of the Dordogne countryside and makes a perfect base for discovering the region, being exceptionally located in the picturesque and historical village of Bourdeilles, just 9km (6 miles) from the quaint and vibrant town of Brantôme. Your hosts offer you their help in reserving tables, booking visits and organising itineraries, and relish the opportunity to let you concentrate on enjoying your stay.
Each property is uniquely furnished providing exceptional character and atmosphere, with voluminous living areas conducive to rest and relaxation, stylish kitchens, luxurious bathrooms with free-standing baths and large walk-in showers.
